Listen to the show here>>> Currency markets are still quietSENS may hav e been busy yesterday but the same can't be said for currencies, with a fairly dull trading day that saw some action in late afternoon trade as the dollar showed resilience. TreasuryONE wonders whether this is due to low liquidity creeping into the market, position squaring ahead of the Christmas break and just a general reprieve for the dollar, which has been under pressure for some time now. The rand traded below R17.20 in afternoon trade. With local banks only expected to trade until midday today, an uneventful session is expected. Build a more valuable company in 2023I love what we are doing in bizval, one of my startups that is firmly focused on bringing investment banking grade valuations to owners of small and medium businesses. Our view is that all business owners should be able to afford a proper business valuation. To understand more about what drives the valuation of a business and how to build a more valuable business in general, we hosted two webinars in which yours truly and my co-founders presented on some of the key drivers of value. You'll find both webinar recordings at this link>>> And remember, you can use the code REFLECT on checkout this month to get a free bizval Live valuation worth R2,500!
